No, the passwd file is only for :pserver:. When you are using :sspi: you are saying you want to be authenticated by the domain, not by the passwd file. In fact, in :sspi: mode you are actually authenticated before the server even knows what the the requested CVSROOT root is. Remember, the passwd file is only for authentication, not authorization. - Brian _______________________________________________ Cvsnt mailing list Cvsnt at cvsnt.org http://www.cvsnt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cvsnt https://www.march-hare.com/cvspro/en.asp#downcvs
